Marra Bikes and Boards

An amazing experience from start to finish. Communication over email was friendly, informative and prompt as Ben answered all my questions and put my mind at ease. Collected the kayaks the next day where everything was fully explained which made our experience even more enjoyable as there was no stress while getting the kayaks inflated. Staff were friendly and helpful. Equipment was in excellent condition and easy to set up / put away. Spent the afternoon on Wastwater lake and absolutely loved it. Will definitely be back to use again and will likely borrow bikes next time too.

Hired a paddleboard for the kids last week. Ben was brilliant, even when the paddle snapped, he swapped it no problem and told be to keep the paddleboard for as long as we needed. Brilliant price, great service. Our kids loved it. Thanks Ben

What a absolute treat it was to hire bikes from Marra, Ben could not have been more helpful and had 2 bikes ready for us to hire so quickly with full instructions and even provided a ruck sack with a lock, spare inner tubes and tool kit. The bikes themselves were really good quality and we covered a good distance in varying terrains. Highly recommend! Ben it was a pleasure to meet you, good luck with the summer season and all your future ventures. Helen & Laurie from Yorkshire.

I did the Fred Whitton yesterday and Ben helped me sort out an issue with my bike at one of the feed stops - he was really friendly despite it being late in the day and having to deal with a bunch of various tech issues one after another.He quickly sorted the issue which meant I could crack on with the ride - not sure whether to thank him or not for that! Would recommend his shop’s bike services for anyone in the area.

Absolutely fantastic service. Ben really went out of his way to work on my bike and the work he carried out was excellent. I love how the workshop is connected to the lovely coffee shop next door. Every town needs a place like this! I’m so glad I found it.

Rented 2 paddle boards recently, and had great service from everyone there. Nice and relaxed, and they even rearranged when we booked for the wrong date.Highly recommended.

Easy to rent. Really helpful staff. A short drive from Wast Water. We had a lovely time with a paddleboard and 2 person kayak. Suggest getting the electric pump if hiring multiple items as the manual ones do take some time and energy.

Ben fixed up my Carrera mountain bike and it's truly better than when it came out of the shop. Very customer friendly and their hire bikes are the best!
